1 night at the hotel
The people working at the hotel are friendly and helpful the hotel location is good near Bakirkoy shops and metro station. The hotel building is tired and next to a building site my room was small and could hear all noises from other rooms the shower door was broken for this price I could get a better place to stay next time

Worst Hotel in the World
İ am staying at hotels nearly 100 nights a year for so many years due to business in different parts of the world. And i only leave comments when i am really satisfied. However, this is by far the worst hotel i have ever seen. Sheets were dirty, people were rude, at 08.30 in the morning on Sunday we have woke up with a drilling noise next to our room (within the hotel). We made a complaint to lobby and they stopped for few minutes & continued anyway/anyhow. This hotel should be closed & should never recommend or left on the any agency page.

Çok iyi
İş nedeniyle İstanbul’da olduğumuz için çok kısa kalabildik. Otelin konumu çok iyi, odalar güzel ve kullanışlı, personel güleryüzlü ve yardımcıydı. Bizim açımızdan güzel bir konaklama oldu.

Teknik aksaklıklar
banyo rutubetliydi, klozet kapağı kırıktı, banyo lavabosunda akıttığınız su birikiyor gitmiyordu. Kettle çalışmıyordu çay dahi yapamadık.

İyi ve temiz değil, 4 yıldızı haketmiyor
El yıkamak için sabun yoktu, istememe rağmen gelmedi, oda da koku vardı, halı pisti, koridor karanlıktı, kahvaltı ortalamanın altındaydı, tekrar kalmayı düşünmem

Mir wurde dieses Hotel wegen seiner Sauberkeit empfohlen. Leider kann ich das nicht bestätigen. Mein Laken wurde erst nach Aufforderung gewechselt und die Dusche wurde erst nachdem ich es zweimal bemängelt habe gereinigt. Meine Hotslipper wurden weggeworfen und mir wurden keine neuen im Zimmer gelassen. Erst nach Aufforderung und 30 Minuten Wartezeit habe ich welche bekommen. Wenn man nicht aus einem arabischen Land kommt wird man in diesem Hotel leider nicht beachtet. Keine Begrüßung wenn man während dem Aufenthalt an der Rezeption vorbeikommt, kein „Guten Morgen“, nicht einmal ein freundliches Lächeln! Man hat sich als Deutscher mit türkischer Herkunft nicht willkommen gefühlt!
